    We chose Stone-Yancey because of the convenience to our daughter's school (William Jewell). We continue to choose it because it is a beuatiful place, very relaxing, and is superbly managed. The atmostphere is all to be hoped for in the best of B&Bs, the breakfast is EXCELLENT, and all guest amenities are top notch. Wether you are in town for William Jewell, historic Liberty, or just traveling through, this is the place to stay in the greater Kansas City area.

    The innkeepers were accomodating, the house spotlessly clean, the room gorgeous, but wow, was it loud. I am not an early riser, and the hallway and dining room was exceedingly noisy. A rug or carpet in the hallway and a closed door on the dining room would solve this. I would go back, I really liked it, but I hope they make some changes.

    Innkeeper Response
    We’re pleased that you liked our B&B and that you would come back! We’re sorry that you felt it was noisy, however. We do have area rugs in all rooms and hallways and a carpet runner on the stairs, and yes, the dining room actually does have a door. We knew that you were not going to have breakfast, and we even offered you a discount for that, but we weren’t aware that you wanted to sleep through our breakfast serving time. Since we were full that night, we had other guests who were up and about and getting ready for breakfast at 9am, and since this is an historic home, the floors do creak a bit! And there was conversation during breakfast from 9am to 10am. The dining room is on a different floor and the opposite side of the house from the room you were in, so we’ve never had any issues with noise being a problem for guests in that room. But if you had let us know that you wanted to sleep late, we would have happily closed the door to the dining room in order to make the rest of the house as quiet as possible. Regarding your review, I'm wondering about your rating for dining - I'm not sure why you rated it low, as you did not eat any meals here at our inn.

    We stayed two nights and the B&B was exceptional. Our room was beautifully decorated and was warm and welcoming.The breakfasts were the best we have experienced at a B&B. The innkeepers were friendly and helpful. We hope to return to the Stone-Yancy again!
